Current
Study — On
the Effects of Compassionate Intention as a Therapeutic Intervention
by Partners of Breast Cancer Patients — IONS
and CPMC
are leading this collaborative study in which partners or
spouses of women with breast cancer are being taught how to
focus a compassionate or loving intention on their partners,
even if she is not physically present. This practice will
be studied to see its effects on the partners, the women and
their relationship. The project is funded by the Institute
for Research on Unlimited Love, Case Western Reserve University.
Distant
Healing Curriculum Project: An IONS/IHH Collaboration
— This curriculum on distant healing, sponsored by IONS
and the Institute
for Health and Healing, will integrate seminar-style learning
experiences with a set of rich media resources. It will include
an overview of both ancient and contemporary understandings
of the nature of healing, exploration of nonlocal effects
on healing, a review of current scientific research and interviews
with healers who currently use distant healing practices.
The goal is to create a standalone module that can be used
in medical schools, academic settings and continuing professional
education certification programs. An online version of the
Distant Healing curriculum will be developed and made available
to individuals as an IONS sponsored e-learning program.
